We are pleased to note that Mr.. w.
r. Sommercamp, Sr., is getting along
nicely under DIR. Dausman's care.
Mr.. c. S. Peck was down from the
Oso mine on Tuesday night for the pur-
pose OF making arrangements to have
his ore worked. He says that it will
mill about $500 per ton.
Mr.. S. j. Prltchard, of Catherine
creek, was in town on Monday. He
gave his bond as assessor, and took his
departure for home on Tuesday. He
informed us that he never saw the range
so barren as at the present time, and
that in his opinion, there would be
heavy losses in stock. He thinks thas
the rabbits have eaten the range out,
to speak, as there are thousands of
on the Snake river plains.
We understand that Superintend.
Stanton will remove the hosting 81.
gine at the Poorman mine to Flint.
where it will be placed on one of the
mines there. This is q good move on
the part of Mr.. Stanton, as hosting
work is something needed with which
to aid in prospecting the mines at Flint.
We are glad to know that Superinten-
dent Stanton will develop the mines in
that camp to considerable depth.

Colored Statesman Trotter will have to
trot. The Senate will sit down on the
second persistent attempt Of Presiden-
tial prerogative to override the rights Of
the people.
We always support the President when
he is right, and will always point out
any wrong that he commits, and the
Trotter nomination was certainly a
wrong.
Offices are not personal perquisites or
party means, and out of the Presidents
own month he is condemned for this at
empt to insult the expressed wishes Of
the people of the District Of Columbia
The worst part of it is that it has the un
pleasing countenance of bid for the color
ed vote which has persistently sntagonized
the principles of Democracy and blindlY
followed the corrupt influences of the
Southern Republicans.
1t is asserted in some quarters that this
nomination was trap to catch the Re
publicans in contradiction of their de-
votiOn for the negro. SO much the worse.
A President has no business setting traps.
The dignity of his office and the patriotic
idea that should inspire the head of vic
torious party is entirely false to the tricks
of demagoguery or Of such very small POI
litical strategy as Setting springs to
catch woodcocks" This is, perhaps,
a little thing, as the District of Columbia
has not more than 300,00 and
no voters, but there is great principle
involved in it, and the Southern people
will take time to study what can be the
meaning Of Democratic President who
appeals to the Republican vote in the
great Democratic section, and ignores the |
natural as well as the political logic of
Lhe act.
We have said all the time that the !
South should support Mr.. Cleveland for
4 second term; but we cannot say that
his should be done in recognition of the
idea Of winning the Republi-
ans instead of solidifying our own party,
specially if the Mugwump heretofore
Known to be of neutral tint is to be of
he Matthew'S rotter color. 1t will be
ime enough to give colored Democrats
'ffice when their people cease to be blind
y herded like sheep in the nefarious in
crest of Radicalism.

Congress has passed this year river and
harbor appropriations to the amount Of
$24, 100000 and pension bills to the
amount of $150,00000O
Now, after the subject of coast defense
and navy appropriations has been dis
cussed generally, we think that Congress
has the exact estimates by which it might
very quickly put the country in a state Of
safety against any war complication.
The reports seem to show that the guns
can be made in America, though we con-
TESS not to have believed this at first, and
they also show a practical way to establish
a complete system Of defense.
Therefore, let the work go on straight
to its proper consummation.
Besides the necessity of the case there
is the feeling of national pride which
will justify the necessary appropriations

The Powers of the Coming Brain.

We say that education is a process Of train
ing and furnishing the mind; but what is the
mindl That its ultimate essence is an ethe-
real something, without weight or dimension,
we believe; but this is beyond the province OF
practical education The brain, for all prac-
teal purposes, is what we are called upon to
educate. By studying this organ we find that
it is composed of fbers, curiously and orderly
arranged, and that the quality Of mind in the
lower animals and man is determined by the
number Of its convolutions and the ffneness
of its texture. Could the brains of all the
orders of animals, from n simple nerve center
TO the highest type OF a human brain. be
arranged in order before us, we should have
an illustrated history of a mind. During
long SUGGESTIONS of cons the brains have been
developing from the simplest cOnvOlution Of
nerves 10 the best brain yet evolved All
this we believe, has been worked up' under
the guidance Of n supreme power, whose
guiding hand he's been active through all the
ages in the multitddinous forms Of progress
sve animal and vegetable life, until we hold
to-day the advanced position we now occupy.
But creation is or an onward march, and
education hastens it forward At no time in
the history OF the physical universe has mind
occupied so high place, whether we regard
its quality or quantity, and at 10 time in the
future will ft occupy so low place ~ now.
The powers It the coming brain will far ex-
ceed anything the world has yes known

LIFE ON THE STAGE.
Tho Work ol An Actor Terribly Trying
to the Physical System.


No, I can't see u.at men and women who
work honestly, as thousands and tens OK
thousands Of them do, upon the stage, can
reasonably face an end so terrible more than
men and women in other lines Of life But
there is this TO be said:
The actors OF America are treated like pigs.
We hear of new theatre with "A magnificent
entrance, with glass windows and gorgeous
mahogany furnishings. We find a patent
seat for the auditor, and all the gorgeous
scintillations that can be dreamed OF by
science and outworked by art, TO make the
auditorium bright an beautiful and COM
Portable. But across the stage sweep the
wild winds OF winter unchecked and in the
damp and dreary dressing rooms we find
either an excessive, unchecked steam heat or
a bitter, biting blast from the unclean cellar.
Actors face the footligbts, which burn and
blazen up into their very eyes, reversing
absolutely the idea Of light as born IN the
mind Of the Creator. which comes from
above, not from below. They are compelled
TO fashion their faces in an unnatural way.
The women dress TO suit the times. Taking
off. in their overheated or underbeated
dressing rooms the flannel for protection,
they garb themselves for the delight and en-
joyment of the public in front in the garment
Of, so to speak, nudity. Those high up the
ladder are well paid, and can command, al
though they rarely get, comfortable quarters
But the little people of the stage, thousands
and scores Of thousands of them 70 whom s.
and $40 week is the only straw between
them and starvation, what can they geti
What do they havel
SO far as unnatural excitement Of late
hours, impure air, unprotection from cold
and heat, TIE glaring of the blazing gas, the
ms and outs of winter weather and summer
solstice 60 dare say the life Of an actor is
made less comfortable, less easy, less desirable
than that of any other man who works with
head and body combined, but that this life
would lead Of necessity TO an unbalanced
mind | am not willing 10 concede Disap-
pointment, worry, apprehension, Jealousy, a
long, deep sigh for that recognition which so
rarely comes, may work a headachy DISPOSE
ton, carve deep lines in pretty faces, and
draw deep scars across weary hearts, but
many of us know that disappointed hope and
barrenness of heart do not necessarily bring
that which, after all, may be a comfort and
solace--a disturbed. unsettled brain.-Joe

for a week or ten days, and then gradually

Jacob Hulshizer, Il brakeman on ine New
Jersey Central railroad, while coupling cars
at Easton, Pa, was caught between the
bumpers. When released he vas uncon-
scious and his body began swelling so rap
idly that his shirt band had to he cut to pre-
vent him from choking The swelling con-
tinued until his body completely filed his
clothing, bursting his shirt and trousers in
several places. His head was soon swoolen to
twice its natural size, and blood poured in
streams from his mouth, ears and nose. A
doctor who was called said the swelling was
caused by the bursting Of blood vessels in
Hulshizers lungs, which forced air into all
the tissues of his body. The skin has the APP
pearance Of blown up bladder, and il pressed
the air beneath is forced away, and returns
with loud snap when the pressure is re-

There is a good deal of reason in the
criticism of the methods of passing the
general appropriation bills in the last
hours Of Congress, which renders it i'm
possible for the President to study them,
while the responsibility of their failing is
thrown on him. The pay Of large num-
bers of employees directly under the Elk
ecutive control is included in these APP
preparation bills, and yet he is not left
any chance to remedy the faults or the
Jobs in the provision for these salaries.

THE ALTERNATIVE.

Prejudice has been so successfully ed
ucated in Virginia that when a citizen
says he thinks the debt ought to be paid
or that a man ought to be allowed to pay
taxes in coupons if he chooses to exercise
that right, Immediately somebody cries
aloud that this idea of freedom of thought
is un-Democratic, and thus a great deal
of noise is being made. The noise
causes some of the politicians to be deaf
to the most important factor in the
coming issue, and this is the trial Of the
alternative between the Riddleberger bill
and reputation.
We perceive that numerous newspapers
in the State have not cOmprehended the
result Of putting this alternative to the
Democratic party, and it Is quite certain
that the present party managers will not
see the consequences. Nevertheless, the
facts in their true light disclose the inev
liable, and this is a sharp and decisive
line between the Democrats who wished
to try the Riddleberger bill and those
who wish to use it as a trick to force The
party on reputation platform.
The earnestness with which patriotic
Democrats desired to force the Riddle
berger bill al one time is no hint that they
will agree to Fepudiation simply because
Mahones plan proves to be failure after
Democrats tried all we could 80 make it
work
Don't you forget that there is an honest
and conservative element in Virginia
that will let the Regulators wander in
the wilderness before they will agree 20
any such nonsense as putting the Demo
cratic party up for sale to mere dema-
gogues and Office seekers.
